Celebrating Milestones – 101 in 1001 Update

I can’t believe it’s almost August already. When your work day seems to drip by, it’s always a shock to look at the calendar and realise how far along in the year you are.

Having started my 101 in 1001 challenge on the 1st June 2012 I’m 421 days (as of today) & I can’t quite believe that we are still sticking with it, and in fact are progressing pretty well. I admit it, I’m a great starter of things, but trying to complete them eludes me more than I should admit (except Ice Cream, but then no-one ever has trouble finishing Ice Cream, right?)

With 42% of the time elapsed, and with 34% completed plus another 10% in progress, it’s coming on nicely. It comes into it’s own on rainy weekends (though we aren’t due to have any of those dpon woohoo!)

I have still have a few of the biggies to complete – Hot Air Ballooning, Sky Diving, holiday with my siblings, walk behind a waterfall, swim 50 lengths and cook an entire cookbook. Does anyone know of any really short cookbooks?

Surprisingly, one of the hardest ones to complete has been booking in to donate blood. It’s really tough to find a day that they are open and they are nearby. In additional they only take blood until around 4pm. Combine this with flying an average office desk, doesn’t really make it very easy.

I’ve also been looking through my ‘Improve the ‘How Foodie Are You’ score by 15 items. Well, it seems that whoever wrote the list of unusual food items added several in twice so now it’s missing 8 items. I would love your suggestions to add! Comment below, Tweet me or pop me a message on Google+.

Kia ora, welcome, welcome!

This my travel blog featuring as many Adventures as a London (based) Kiwi that I can fit in with a side of uniqueness. I’ve always wanted to live life to the full, explore as many corners of the globe as possible, nibble as many different delectations, experience history and seek out the special things in life. Consider yourself warned about me...
